Database empty?
Posted: Wed Apr 27, 2022 4:02 pm
Hi again!
Damn this team project just keeps having the weirdest issues...
Before, I had always been working solo on games... this one is a group thing, with many people updating stuff...
(we are using PlasticSCM if that changes anything)
Today, I was showing the DialogueSystem to someone, and somehow, i got a warning that
"Dialogue System: Conversation 'Test 01' not found in database.
After investigating, it seems the database was "empty"... I had made 4 actors, each with their portraits added, as well as that one conversation... all of which is gone...
Since we have PlasticSCM, I thought probably someone had accidentally overwritten it with an empty version "somehow"
So i check the "initial database", found the asset, "Game Dialogue Database"
then checked all of that file "modification history"
the thing is, only me has made any commit to that file...
I rolled back to a specific commit which was "updated all 3 characters portraits in dialogue system" and the database is STILL empty...
so... well here I am! once again!
